Dee

ingredients

1
• Place flour, salt & pepper in a bowl and blend with a whisk. In another bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. Whisk this mixture into the dry ingredients until smooth and homogenous, and then mix in herbs.
2
• Bring a marmite half filled with salted water to a boil, and place a perforated hotel pan or large-holed colander over the mouth. Pour a portion of the batter into the pan and push it through the holes with the aid of a rubber spatula.
3
• Let späetzle simmer for 1 minute and then scoop out with a spider into a bowl of ice water. Let cool, and then drain and pat dry.
4
• At service time, heat the butter to the noisette stage and sauté the pasta until light golden, seasoning lightly and adding the zest at the end.
